Giveaway to Promote Movement!
May was Arthritis Month, but in reality this is something we should be aware of all year long. The Arthritis Foundation and the Ad Council’s are launching a new campaign to create public awareness of easy and fun steps everyone can take to prevent and decrease the pain and disability of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis dates back to the Ice Age and now some 27 million Americans live with it. But even after all those years, there is no cure and no definitive cause has been discovered. But you can make moves to make the pain and uncomfortableness more manageable. How? MOVE! Yes. That’s the main objective of the new campaign. You’ve probably seen one of the commercials. This is my favorite:
If you (or anyone you know) is at risk (or already diagnosed) with osteoarthritis, please check out the website Fight Arthritis Pain.
But wait I did promise a giveaway didn’t I? The Ad Council and Arthritis Foundation are sponsoring a giveaway on this blog.

I learned you can do this to help combat arthritis pain:”Coating hands or feet in melted paraffin wax traps the heat right where you need it – on your sore joints.”

i learned for people with mild to moderate pain, analgesics relieve pain without relieving inflammation or swelling. These drugs, which include acetaminophen, propoxyphene hydrochloride and tramadol, tend to have fewer side effects than others

Stretching decreases daily joint stiffness, improves range of motion and minimizes muscle soreness after exercise. Try yoga and tai chi and other gentle stretches.

I learned this: “Regular, moderate exercise offers a whole host of benefits to people with arthritis. Mainly, exercise reduces joint pain and stiffness, builds strong muscle around the joints, and increases flexibility and endurance.”
